Caution: The FC300SR or Itron Mobile Radio are the only devices that support
programming for the remote module endpoint.
The remote module and programmer should be a minimum of 12-inches apart while
programming.
Do not place the programmer antenna directly on the remote module.
Encoder-type Register Connections
Connect the wires from the 500W ERT remote module to the register screw terminals
according to the following table.
Note: Itron recommends 19-26 gauge, pre-bonded or solid conductor wire with a
maximum diameter of .082" (individual wire insulation). The use of un-bonded wire may
produce an unreliable connection when using gel caps for joining wires.
